Our Story

We're building a better way to find high-quality, affordable stock media.

Joel HollandFounder

In 2009, I started a stock media company with a single vision: to provide premium creative content
that everyone could afford. This idea grew into VideoBlocks, followed by the launch of GraphicStock
and AudioBlocks. Now, we’re adding millions of photos to our new image Marketplace and it’s time to
bring our expanding libraries together under one brand: Storyblocks.

So, what is Storyblocks? Put simply, Storyblocks is your one-stop-shop for high quality stock media at
a fraction of the cost. We’re the same artist-friendly company that we’ve always been, but now we
have even more to offer the creative community. With unique video, image, and audio Member Libraries—plus
Marketplace content for both footage and photos—all the building blocks for amazing stories are right here.

How Does Storyblocks Work?

Three unique libraries. One intuitive platform.

Our plans are a la carte by media type. You can create an account for just video, for example, or sign-up
for all three—video, images, and audio. You’re in control.

Unlimited downloads for your unlimited imagination.

You get unlimited downloads from the Member Libraries you choose at no extra cost, including 115,000 HD
videos, 400,000 images, and 110,000 audio tracks.

Marketplace content that’s by creatives, for creatives.

When you sign-up for video or image subscriptions, you also save on millions of additional
Marketplace items—where artists get 100% of the sale price.

Simple, royalty-free license for all your projects.

Anything you download is yours to keep forever—royalty-free. Members can use our content for both
commercial and personal projects.

The launch of the Marketplace was a real game changer for the industry. It’s a great win-win situation and, more importantly, allows us to continue expanding our ideas and creativity to produce the best content we can.JP Careless, Spotmatik

We are extremely happy about our collaboration with [Storyblocks] for a number of factors — high sales, efficient support, short review times, easy uploading and tagging, and, obviously, 100% commission! No other agency can offer this to contributors. Long live our collaboration!Diego Cervo and Roberto Fumagalli, Dualstock

We love being part of the Marketplace. It gives us income to keep traveling and capturing this beautiful world. Through the 100% commission, we can create new projects like filming documentaries or tech travel projects.Johannes Oppewal, TellyVision
